Virtual Ambulance for Psychotherapy and the development of new treatment methods
Treatment services and new treatment methods
The internet-based treatment service addresses to people with mental stress and disorders and can be applied by psychotherapists and psychiatrists for the support of their treatments. It comprises psychoeducation, diagnostics and cognitive trainings. In psychoeducation for example, concepts of psychotherapy are explained by psychotherapists. The videos are thematically orientated towards the course of treatments and can thus be applied as a supplement and support of a psychotherapy.
Research approach of universal functional mechanisms of the mind
The focus of the research approach is the analysis of the universal functional mechanisms of the mind and their implementation in psychotherapy in order to develop a commonly valid neuropsychotherapy. The exploration of the biologically founded functional mechanisms of the mind is required for a deepened scientific foundation of psychotherapy in the sense of evidence-based medicine.
Development of new treatment methods
As a functional mechanism, the attribution to the self is for example investigated, trainings are validated and mimic, voice, gaze analysis (eye tracking), biofeedback as well as magnetic resonance tomography are employed.
